THE PRIZE ESSAYS.

OUR COUNTY .- The First Prize Essay, written and read by Miss Lizzie L. Grove of Friendship .- The history of the Pilgrims who landed at Plymouth, is familiar to every student of history. Their privations and trials were something which the young people of to-day can scarcely realize. Yet not less severe were the trials and hardships endured by the Pilgrims who came through the great wilderness of Western New York, and found their way into that part of the state, the one hundredth anniversary of whose settlement is celebrated to-day. While riding from town to town in the many pleasant drives which Allegany county affords, it seems almost impossible to imagine the entire place a great wilderness. More especially do we notice this in driving from Friendship to Angelica. One place from all others attracts the attention of passersby, and that is the Church Farm. Not only is it noticed because of the beauty of the place and its surroundings, but because of the fact that it was the home of Judge Philip Church, the son of one of the first settlers of the county. In 1799 Mr. John B. Church purchased from the Morris Reserve 100,000 acres of land, covered with pines. Philip Church, with a small party guided by Moses Van Campen, started from what is now Almond, to explore the land recently purchased by his father. This was accomplished, and in 1804 a map of the Church Tract was made, and Angelica laid out near the center. Previous to the coming of the white settlers the county was inhabited by a tribe of Indians called Senecas, who lived near Caneadea, and in this town was situated the old " council house " of the Indians. One of their tribe bore a name renowned and familiar to the older inhabitants of the county, that of Mary Jemison, or as she is often called, "The white woman of the Genesee." Captured by the Indians when about 12 years old, she spent the remainder of her life among the Senecas, by whom she was ever honored and respected. When the county wasstill a part of Genesee county, Nathan- ael Dike, a graduate of Yale College, and a soldier of the Revolution, first settled in what is now Allegany county. Mr. Dike was a native of Connecticut, from which state he moved into Penn- sylvania, and from there in 1795 within the borders of Wellsville. Therefore it is fitting that

320

this celebration should be held in this town. Another of the early settlers, who was known and respected throughout the county, was Hon. Martin Butts of Clarksville. Settling early in that town, he made for himself a home and a name remembered many years. Still another, is the Hon. John Hammond, or who was perhaps better known by the title of " Honest John Ham- mond." In 1831 Mr. Hammond with his father moved to Allegany county, and from that time until his death in 1887, he was prominent in the affairs of the county. Soon after the settle- ment of Mr. Dike, by an act of the New York state legistature, Allegany county was formed from Genesee county April 7, 1806, but comparatively little was done towards settling it until near the close of the year. Slowly and tediously the great forests began to disappear, and new settlers joined those already here. Their small log houses gave place to larger and better ones. The settlements and the number of homes increased, and the manufacture of lumber formed the leading industry of the pioneers for many years, but as the forests disappeared this indus- try began to give way to agriculture. The various industries of the county are due, to a large extent, to the great diversity of soil and surface. While Allegany is fortunate in never having been visited by war, yet the inhabitants have suffered from it. To the war of 1812 it contribu- ted its portion, as afterward in the late war, when it is said no county in New York opposed slavery more strongly than Allegany. To Angelica is due the honor of being the first town in the county in which a newspaper was published. Here in 1820 the Angelica Republican was started, but continued only a few years. Angelica was made the first county seat, being then the most central place. During the time Angelica was the county seat, two railroads and the Genesee Valley canal were built, none of which passed through Angelica, and it was decided to move the county seat. Accordingly, in 1858 it was partially removed to Belmont, but court was held in both places until about one year ago when Belmont became the county seat. In our country, where all men are free and equal, the self-made men hold a high place in the esti- mation of our people. Judge Martin Grover ranked among the first of our county. From a poor boy working in the office of a lawyer, he became by his own efforts one of the best edu- cated men in the state, and finished his career as a judge of the court of appeals in New York state. As Allegany county grew and improved in other ways, so it did in its educational work. In the town of Alfred William C. Kenyon opened a school, to which came young men and women from all over the country. By his enthusiasm and earnestness Mr. Kenyon instilled into the hearts of his pupils worthy thoughts which appeared later in their lives. All over the United States these pupils, now teachers, statesmen and divines, have gone forth carrying with them praises for Allegany, until it has become renowned for its educational advantages. The four hundredth anniversary of the discovery of the western continent by Columbus was celebrated at Chicago. May the celebration at Wellsville, of the one hundredth anniversary of the settle- ment of our dear old Allegany, be as long remembered, and may the history of the county be as familiar to every person in the county, as is the history of the discovery of America.

OUR COUNTY .-- Second Prize Essay, written by Miss Ruth Mason, Rushford .- Probably no county has ever been opened for settlement with greater difficulties to overcome than the territory which comprises Allegany county. The dense forests which covered the surface were the greatest hinderance, because of the great time taken by settlers to remove them. Aslate as 1809 or 10, settlements on the Holland Purchase were few, because of the density of the wood- land. After this time the prosperity of the county slowly advanced. The lumber produced found but little market at home, as the land lay far from the head waters of the Allegany. If this had been the only difficulty with which the county met, there would have been much greater prosperity. But it was not, the free use of whiskey in all the Genesee country was a curse which made the strong men weak, and carried sorrow into the log cabins of the wilderness. The actual settlement of the county was begun in 1795, in the spring of which year Nathanael Dike located in the present town of Wellsville on Dikes Creek. Nathanael Dike came from Tioga Point, Pa., but was a native of Connecticut. He received his education at Yale, and during

the Revolution was attached to Gen. Warren's staff at Boston and later to Gen. Washington's. In 1796 Rev. Andrew Gray, Wm. Gray, Joseph A. Rathbun and Benjamin Vandermark settled in the town of Almond. All of these were from the same locality in northern Pennsylvania, and brought their goods in flat-bottomed scows up the Susquehanna and its tributaries to the site of Hornellsville. The towns settled next after Wellsville and Almond, were Andover in 1796 at Elm Valley, Independence in 1798, and Genesee in 1799 at Ceres. Allegany county was formed from Genesee, April 7, 1806. The western tier of townships of Steuben county was annexed in 1808. A portion was re-annexed to Genesee in 1811, and Eagle, Pike, Genesee Falls, Portage, Nunda and Ossian were taken off in 1846. Another portion was added to Livingston in 1856, leaving the county as it now is. The eastern tier of towns was included in the Phelps and Gorham Purchase, the two western tiers in the Holland Purchase, and the two intermediate tiers in the Morris Reserve. The Holland Purchase was the territory ceded to the Holland Land Company by the Six Nations in 1797. The Morris Reserve was owned by Robert Morris, excepting 100,000 acres belonging to John B. Church. This tract was bid in for Mr. Church by his son Philip at the foreclosure of a mortgage to secure $80,000 lent by Church's agent, Alexander Hamilton to Morris. The surface of the county is mostly a hilly upland, divided into valleys by the streams, much of it presenting a rugged mountainous sur- face. The highest summits are 2,000 to 2,500 feet above tide, or 500 to 800 feet above the valley, many of whose slopes are too steep for profitable cultivation. The hills end abruptly on the Genesee which flows through a deep valley. The drainage of the county is sufficient to indicate its elevated character. There are two main ridges, which extend parallel with the Genesee river, and form watersheds to streams flowing into that river and the Canisteo, a tributary of the Susquehanna, on the east; and the Allegany river on the west. The Genesee flows in a northerly direction through the center of the county, The rocks of the county belong mostly to the shales and sandstones, the former being found mostly in the northern part, and the later in the southern part, though sandstones have been quarried in Rushford for grindstones. Before the county was occupied by the whites it was embraced in the do- main of the Senecas, who lived in large numbers on the Genesee flats. They raised corn and potatoes, and sometimes camped and hunted on the uplands, where they were accustomed to make maple sugar in the spring. The Indians gave up their lands in Phelps and Gorham's Purchase, by a treaty at Buffalo Creek in 1788. The rest of the county, except the Caneadea Reservation, was given up in 1797, by a treaty at Big Tree or Geneseo. The Reservation was ceded to the whites in 1825, but the Indians remained upon it until 1830, their principal village being at Caneadea. The first court held the year after the county was formed, sat at Angelica June 2, 1807. By an act of the next legislature the county seat was permanently located at that place, a court house and jail being erected soon. The first county judge was Philip Church, owner of the large Church estate. In 1858 an act was passed, providing for the removal of the county seat to a point on the Erie railroad. Belmont was chosen and up to 1892 courts were held alternately at the two places. Although grains can be successfully grown, the county is best adapted to grazing. Dairying has become the most important business of the county. The lumbering business was once very important, many immense trees being found in the forests, but they have nearly disappeared. The principal improvements are the Erie railroad, which enters near the center of the eastern border, and extends through to the center of the western ; the Genesee Valley canal, which extended along the valley of the Genesee to Oramel at which place it turned and went southwest. Several well-known men have been born, or at some time have lived in our county, among whom are Senator Teller, United States senator from Colorado, who received his education at Rushford Academy. Dr. Wm. Smith, formerly from Granger, was health officer of port of New York for many years. He was removed by Gov. Flower. Senator Higgins, state senator for the 32d district, was born in Rushford, edu- cated at Pike Seminary. Judge Hatch, formerly from Oramel, now a judge of the superior court of Buffalo. Judge Hamilton Ward, judge of the supreme court, 8th district; his present home is Belmont. Robert J. Ingersoll born at Dresden, N. J., who lived at Hume when a boy, is now a prominent lawyer and lecturer in New York City. One university, several academies and many union schools have been established within its borders, gaining for Allegany a good educational standing among the counties of the state. We hope that during the coming cent- ury, our county may advance as much as in the past, and that 1995 will find her possessed of many noble sons and daughters.

WELLSVILLE. CHAPTER XXXVI.

BY LEWIS H. THORNTON.

This history proposes to interpret, so far as possible, present Wellsville. The past is a true fountain of knowledge by whose light alone to-day and to-morrow can be understood. A discussion of some of the causes which have created the Wellsville of to-day, the presentation of a collection of statistics, and a simple narrative of local history is its purpose. Historical events, otherwise uninteresting, gain a charm from having occurred on familiar ground. The Genesee river is more than a stream of water notorious for its spring floods, when one knows how it has historically affected the territory through which it flows. The Main street of Wellsville is invested with a new interest when one learns that it follows very nearly the old Indian trail along which Red Jacket and Cornplanter journeyed. Local history is remarkably difficult to investigate and set forth. Mis- takes are inevitable. When it is appreciated, however, by what laborious research among records, diaries, old account-books and histories ; and by how many patient interviews, facts have been rescued from the failing memories of the oldest residents, shortcomings may be forgiven. There is an old story to the effect that when Sir Walter Raleigh was a prisoner he saw from his window a street tumult and gave different testimony re- garding it than two other witnesses who themselves disagreed as to the circumstances. When it is impossible for us to be of one mind relative to things that have occurred within our sight and hearing, how difficult to search out the truth about events in the long ago. So hard, in fact, as to be impossible were not some of them contemporaneously recorded. Had it not been for the remarkable assiduity of Dr. H. M. Sheerar as a local annalist and chronicler of events in the history of Wellsville, many of the facts and details herein con- tained would long ago have been taken to the grave in the memory of those gone before. The reminiscences and scrap-books which he kindly placed at the disposal of the writer have been a source of authentic informa- tion. To the personal recollections also of Mr. and Mrs. John Cline, Mr. and Mrs. John B. Clark, Mr. G. B. Gordon and the diary of Mr. Carlton Farnum is due the publication of much that throws a new light on the history of Wellsville.
